Triumph TR7 Reviews from Australia and New Zealand

1979 Triumph TR7 2.0

Summary:

Coolest thing created in the UK

Faults:

Number 2 plug and lead shot. Needs new shockers and bushes all round & carbies rebuilt.

General Comments:

I wanted one of these since I was about 15.

I love the look of these cars. Think 1970's rock god. I fully expected that when I first started it up it would automagically grow me sideburns, crank up Led Zep on the radio and take me to the great ocean road at great haste.

1981 Triumph TR7 FHC 2.0 petrol

Faults:

Classic cars or cars approaching 20yrs of age can require severe maintenance, dependant upon general condition via former ownerships. Sadly few people seem able to maintain a vehicle in pristine condition, and cars of this age can reflect that. However, treat your TR7 well and it will reward you.

General Comments:

A classic British sports car. Must be driven to be appreciated. Once experienced you'll feel the need to own one, or several. A 3.5 L - 5.0 L V8 option is an available (and exciting) upgrade. Excellent investment potential for the next 10 - 20 yrs. A driver's car, anything but disposable transport - please.
